Welcome to Lettsom Gardens
Lettsom Gardens is a community garden in Camberwell,
London SE5. It is bordered by Grove Park to the north
and Grove Hill Road to the south. It is a popular
amenity for the communities in those streets and also
more widely amongst Camberwell residents. The gardens
are run by a charity, Lettsom Gardens Association, and
accessed is by keys that come with an annual membership.
The space is divided between woodland, allotments and a
tarmac sports field. Between the three of them they
create a well used community utility. There is a small
area of grass that hosts many a picnic after school in
the summer, and also a large wooden swing.The gardens
have one major open day during the year which is a a
bonfire night on the nearest weekend to November the
5th. It is a well attended local event.
Please take time to look over the rules for the gardens
and should you wish to join up follow the instructions
in the Membership section
of this site.
